Cadillac Jack Favor chords by Clint Black

Chords with lyrics

Chorus:

     G+G
 He's Cadillac Jack Favor and the name rings true,
    C7C7
   if he's got a ride any stranger would, too,
   G+G
  the one bad habit that his Ponder would say
     D MajorD
   is sure gonna put him through the trials one day.

Verse:
       G+G
   And that's just what happened, he took pity on two men,
          C7C7
   heading down to Louisiana, he stopped and let them in,
           G+G
   and the thanks he did for helping them
         D MajorD                              G+G
   would make him wish he was busting broncs again.
                 C majorC                        G+G
  He dropped them off in Bossieer City where they met up with a man,
      FF                     D MajorD
  that vagabond commitee barely even had a plan.
        G+G                              C majorC
  It was just a simple robbery turned double homicide,
       G+G                      D MajorD            G+G
  they got away with murder, it'd be someone else's hide.

Chorus:
    G+G
  Almost two years come and gone, they never solved that crime,
         C7C7
   'til they found one of our vagabonds already doing time,
          G+G
 when that jailbird started singing, they all knew the words were wrong,
           D MajorD
   but the sheriff and the DA and the judge all sang along.

Verse:
       G+G
  They pinned it on Jack Favor, gave him life without parole
             C7C7
  gave Jack's freedom to the jailbird, payment on the lies he told,
        G+G                     D MajorD                    G+G
  just so happens that election year everybody paid out at the polls.
      C7C7                      G+G
  Cadillac's no fallen hero, and he's never gonna break,
         FF                       D MajorD
  when it comes to prison rodeo, there'll be no easy eight.
            G+G                               C majorC
  And if you want the definition of the picture-perfect frame,
        G+G                 D MajorD              G+G
  it'd be in the dictionary underneath Jack Favor's name.

Solo:
 G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G

Outro:
      C7C7                      G+G
  Cadillac's no fallen hero, and he's never gonna break,
         FF                        D MajorD
  when it comes to prison rodeo, there's still no easy eight.
            G+G                               C majorC
  And if you want the definition of the picture-perfect frame,
        G+G                 D MajorD              G+G
  it'd be in the dictionary underneath Jack Favor's name.
              G+G
  Yeah, it's the world's most crooked picture,
                          C majorC
  and when it comes to being framed,
    G+G                      D MajorD          G+G
  Cadillac Jack Favor should be in the hall of fame.
